Gargantia #10 — Everybody’s Sad!

June 9th, 2013

 

Why? Hell if I know!

Impressions:

It’s tough being prophetic. Filling out this weekend’s theme, we have yet another maudlin, flashback laden episode, although if you cut out all the pointless nonsense centering on side characters pissing about, then it’d just be about five minutes long and mostly Red staring at his hands in terror, wracked by the horrible weight of the guilt of… killing monsters trying to kill him and all his friends? Wait, no. He’d need a personality before having motivations, especially after not a couple episodes prior using the whole good soldier and orders uber alles for squid muderizing purposes. Killing things that centuries ago ago were humans? No… Can’t be it either. He was still complaining about being NOT able to kill more pirates after obliterating an entire ship of them and all he did between then and now was look at some tits. Wasting a good squid meal? Yeah. That’s probably what they were going for. Oh the horror and tragedy.

The cliffhanger was the only thing of note as it introduced what will no doubtedly be the last boss, that someone else fell through the magical space hole and instead of making ocarinas, staring at tits, and being molested by drag queens, established a squid killing cult… and probably also looked at tits. Way to underachieve, Red.

8 Shouts From the Peanut Gallery

    Well, looks like the Action is about to begin with next Episode. The Preparations for the Final is on the move

    And how this turn out, i saw this coming. Salvage Weapons from the sea, gain “i am the Master now!” and playing High an Mighty Imperator!!!…. man that sucks

    • Anon says:

      But i think, inside the other “Chamber” the Pilot is long Dead, and the AI is running the Show. Perhaps we have here another “Time Jump” accident, like Ledo

      • Aroduc says:

        That’s actually an interesting thought I hadn’t considered, although would make everything disappointingly black and white, which I probably should expect at this point anyway.

  • tylovetx says:

    Ah Aroduck, you live to be disappointed.

  • Ronin8317 says:

    The robots are the one really running the show!! The robots are forcing the human to kill the ‘solvent squid’, otherwise the robots have no reason to exist. Helping human = killing human!!

  • ark noir says:

    When did this become Guren Lagaan? pinion needs some shades ,simon/ledo needs a little confidence and where is bellows/yoko dammit?

    +1 to Chamber slapping down Ledo’s new found personality.He’s the Damien Sandow of anime.

      Pinion is a faggot, so is Kamina.

      Good thing this is nothing like that overrated POS Gurren Lagaan.

  • Haba says:

    I’m only able to watch this turd on fast forward. What a disappointment.
